Description:
This swap will commemorate the bard in April, the month of his birth. You will send 1 card to 2 other participants. It can be a card or postcard, home-made or store-bought. It could even be an ATC. It can quote one of Shakespeare's plays or poems or can contain an image of the poet himself--anything that celebrates Shakespeare in some way. So brush up your Shakespeare and have fun! The fine print: 1) Earnest newbies with a completed profile are welcome. 2) Anyone with 2 or more no-sends will be dropped (unless you contact me with an explanation). 3) Anyone with a rating lower than 4 will be dropped (unless you contact me with an explanation). 4) Sending a postcard in an envelope is fine for this swap. 5) This is an international swap.

This one will be a challenge to me, but I'm looking forward to it. What I'm also really excited about is seeing other individual's ideas, interpretations and creativity. I'm hoping to get some interesting stuff to show my students the possibilities when it comes to mixing literature and visual representation.

Great, Tryph; I'm glad you're "in"!

Rebecca, I received your card today. It was cute and a very good idea for a project my elementary school students can complete. Thanks Cindy

I just wanted to let my partners know that I will be shipping the stuff out this weekend! Thanks for being patient!

Tia Bel, the card arrived today, and it's wonderful! I'm so impressed! And to heck with mailing it to anyone, I'm gonna be selfish and simply frame it and keep it for myself, to hang on the wall by my computer desk.

I sent out my cards today. Procrastination got the best of me...I sent to Andrea (Sparrow) and Rebecca R. I am nervous about this one. I hope you like what I created. ~Tracey

The Noreaster may have kept me at work over night but it did not prevent me from dashing (as quick as a subaru can dash through heavy white gloop all over the roads) home to grab the packages & drop them in a post-like recepticle to a certain hostess and a college girl. Apologizes if the postmark reads tomorrow morning - I did the best I could before my little red hatchback turned into a pumpkin.

Received two very cool postcards from lene and tryph ... thanks for prompting me to go back to the Sonnets. All the best, Mary B.

Sparrow--Now that's what I call dedication! Not even a Noreaster can stop a swapper!

Tateva, I just got your beautiful card! Thanks for sharing this lovely sonnet with me! Also, thank you for the fact sheet - I love those! :-)

Mine went out late (unfortunately), but are on their way! Apologies to my recipients, but I hope the results are worth the wait. I started out with nary an idea of where to go with this swap, but have been oh-so-pleased with the resulting ATCs. Thanks for the inspiration, beckra!
